Agreed. I'm just an engineer and self-taught C programmer who regularly compiles his own stuff on cygwin when it's not in the standard distribution. I'm usually pretty successful at resolving problems, but this CSL build sucked me into a downward spiral of little fixes that never did end up working.
If I take the big picture approach, I will have a lot to learn. I'm strictly a K&R C guy, I don't know or do etags, autoconf, gdb, etc. I'm probably long overdue to learn some of these tools. If I take this on, what resources are there to help me learn to code in the gnu style, and learn modern C++?
